The missing coefficient of the x-term after finding the product of (-x - 5)², is: C. 10.

<h3>What is the Coefficient of a Variable?</h3>

The coefficient of a variable is the numerical value that comes before the variable and multiplies it.

Find the product of (-x - 5)²:

(-x - 5)(-x - 5)

-x(-x - 5) -5(-x - 5)

x² + 5x + 5x + 25

x² + 10x + 25

The x-term is "10x". The coefficient is: 10.

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the equation x^2-3x+1=0

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using:

$x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c} }{2*a}$

we will have two solutions.

x^2-3x+1=0

So, a=1 b=-3 c=1

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}$

We have two solutions:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$
